Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Summary of Conte:

Pros:

- Is a serial winner with hair transplants
- Extremely passionate and animated post goal celebrations

Cons:

- Shit man manager skills, seemingly lacking in competence to develop youth and his team of players
- Stubborn, inflexible and rigid in style of play and picking players
- Generally makes shite tactical decisions with timing of subs and who he decides to take off and bring on
- Blows either hot or cold. If he's not given enough financial support, blows tepid or cold
- Needs roughly 100-200m a season (depending on the current crop) to be pumped into the first team
- Moans more than my nan after she's knocked back a couple of whiskeys
Listen I need a new CV written...any chance you can do mine?
 
I think the fault is with every single member of staff, the players and the owners.

But, I’m willing to give the players, who are mostly better than they are presently showing, another chance to prove us all wrong, under different managerial leadership. And the owners have this summer’s window to prove themselves too. The manager can immediately get to fuck though.

Do you see there is a culture at the club that has produced this cycle where the same thing happens with every manager?

Is this time different?

Why will it not be the same with the next manager?
 
The club needs new fucking ownership, people to come in that actually want to compete for trophies.

Levy and ENIC don't give two fucks about silverware.

Here we go again, it's all on the manager, and one or two scapegoat players, everything else is fine, let's spin the wheel and give Levy another chance to fuck things up, another manager to chew and spit out, why the fuck not?!

:contefacepalm:


Klopp or Pep couldn't win trophies with us, that should tell you all you need to know.

I bet you that in Conte's next job he'll win trophies and have a team that fights.
Nobody can win anything at spurs.
 
Why didn't we get it in their half and go to the corner flag like other teams do?
Same against Wolves. I could not believe what I was seeing. We were chasing the game and the ball didn’t once seem to go over half way. In fact the final 4 minutes of stoppage time was absolutely shockingly inept. Foul / corner / foul / Corner. Ball never crossed half way when we really needed to chase the equaliser.

Sort of thing that happened in the 97-03 period. Gutless.
 


Club accepts board are wasters and players are bottlers.

Not at all

I think everyone is glad he is calling the board and players out, it needed to be said by someone

What people are annoyed about is his seemingly complete lack of acknowledgement that he has been dreadful for the majority of his time here

Playing one formation and tactic that exposes our average midfield and below average defence, continuing to play players completely out of form, not playing certain players because they were ‘club signings’, never making subs etc etc
Absolutely 👌
